Barb: I’m thinking of using my dad as a guinea pig. Since I’ve been in Cusco for some time, I’m pretty well accustomed to the food, climate, etc. When my parents are coming to visit this July I think we may do some documented before / after tests.

I’ve been blessed with good health, other than getting sick a few times in the first few months after moving to Cusco I’ve been feeling really good :)
